Good Score?

February 26, 2006 4:23 AM from

I have no idea what the average scores are for GalCiv2, so just wondering how mine stacks up...

(Hopefully this works...)

Total score of 137890 points... Huge Galaxy, modified Yor, all races in, beginner level, took about 2 days, started the game in 1.0D, updated half way through, only victory option turned on was Conquest.

Oops, it was a Gigantic galaxy, not huge, with abundant everything, stars evenly dispersed.

Sorry about the image size, I would have cropped it, but was concerned about questions of authenticity of I did so.

Also forgot to mention that I managed to research every tech, including Tech Victory (I picked the highest racial research ability.)

If you played on metaverse and submitted it you could compare it to everyone else.

Ahh, so that's what that does. Thanks, I'll have to use that instead next time.

I still have no idea how scores are calculated. Seems to me that the longer (Game years) a game takes the higher the overall multiplier is. I would have thought difficulty would be the major multiplier.
If you'd played the same game on crippling difficulty and won much sooner you would have gotten a substantially lower score..

Map Size seems to be highly overrated in the scoring at present. Expect that to change eventually (I certainly hope anyway).
